Shari and I have not been this excited about a trip in a couple of years. We will be leaving Thursday morning at 5:30 am for Spokane. We'll meet my parents there, then they'll drive us to the Spokane airport. where our plane will leave at 10:50 am. We'll fly to San Diego, and take part in the Youth Specialties National Youth Worker's Convention. It is now 9:45 pm, so I guess this post will be shorter than I intended. However, please pray for us to not only enjoy ourselves, and come away with some great stuff for youth ministry (ideas, wisdom, stuff to give volunteers and staff), but that we would come away refreshed in our souls, emotions, and body (sleeping 8 hours w/o interruption - what a concept!). Pray also for our boys, as they'll be separated from us for five nights, which Ben doesn't do well yet. Pray for my parents, who will be watching said four boys. Have I mentioned lately that they're very full of energy, and Michael and Ben don't do indoors with nothing to do very well? Thank you for your prayers. I'll post more when we return.
